Re: Setting lathe tools with a touch probe V5.08

lathe spindle question
When switching from auto spindle control to manual, the software sets spindle speed to zero (or very low) Is there a parameter to make it stay at 100% ? Small problem I know but would save pressing the button every time I switch.
